Why are all the people in my chat group rumored to be from the outside world?

The veteran players, who had already experienced dimensional exploration once, earnestly told the two newbies, "No matter what happens afterward, stay behind us. It's dangerous." x4

Seeing her seniors suddenly become serious, Mei asked, somewhat confused, "Um, is dimensional exploration dangerous?"

Sajo Aika was also very curious; it was unusual to see these people being so serious during their interviews.

As if recalling past events, Yu Jin gritted his teeth and said, "It's not a matter of whether he's dangerous or not, he's really the kind of... the kind of person who's very rare. When we first went on a dimensional exploration, we ran right into the boss of that world and almost got our lines broken."

The doctor took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "This is a lesson learned in blood. In order to prevent this kind of door-opening kill from happening again, we must be on high alert and prepared to meet any outrageous challenge."

Kevin stepped forward and reassured them, "But you don't need to worry too much. We've been preparing for this day for a long time."

Xing pulled out a baseball bat with a smile on his face: "When things really get tough, watch me knock him away with one hit!"

Saya Ayaka's gaze slowly swept across the four faces: "Why do I get the feeling that you guys, while talking about danger, are actually... unusually excited?"

"Of course I'm excited!" x4

The four of them simultaneously pointed at Ayaka Sajō: "An unknown world! An unknown adventure! An unknown story! It's about to unfold before you! Isn't that enough to make your heart race?!"

Looking at the four hands pointing at her, Aika Sajou chuckled softly, and after a short while...

Raiden Mei looked at the five fingers pointing at her and couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle.

"I have no objection, but..."

Mei looked slightly puzzled.

"If we travel to those unknown worlds, how long will it take to return to our own world?"

The doctor withdrew his hand: "Don't worry about that. The passage of time is different during exploration. When we go to other worlds, the time it takes to return will be the same."

"Let's treat this as a wonderful journey for our chat group, or even a vacation. If the world we go to is peaceful, then we'll relax and enjoy ourselves. If the world we go to is full of chaos..."

Kevin looked at everyone, and after receiving their approving nods, he raised his fist.

"Then try to change it! Rekindle the spark there!"

"This is the meaning of Infinite Flow!" Yu Jin raised his fist.

"Don't say things you can't understand," the doctor said, raising his fist.

"What if I transmigrate into an adult comic book?" Xing asked, raising her fist in confusion.

Mei instantly lost control of her expression, and despite suppressing a certain emotion, she raised her fist: "Can you please stop saying things that are scary?"

“But it is indeed a possibility, isn’t it?” Aika chuckled and raised her fist.

At that very moment, six voices, each with its own distinct tone, rang out simultaneously:

"Dimensional Exploration System, activate!" x6

As the six called out, a white light, invisible to ordinary people, instantly enveloped them!

Ding!

The cold, mechanical voice seemed to resound directly from the depths of consciousness:

[The Dimensional Exploration System is now activated!]

Historical backtracking data detected... Error log analysis in progress...

[Unlock New Feature: World Identity Templates!]

[World Identity Template Instructions]:

This template will assign each explorer a legitimate identity and social standing within the current world they are exploring.

The template will include an additional core capability that is highly compatible with the rules of this world.

[Core Ability Characteristics: This ability was assigned by the interdimensional exploration system and enhanced by the system.]

Upon successful completion of this exploration, this core ability will be permanently retained and mastered by the explorer.

Important Notes:

[Warning: If an explorer actively uses power beyond the core abilities granted by their identity template in this world, the current identity template will be removed.]

[Warning: After the template is removed, the final core ability may be weakened, its form changed, or cause unknown side effects.]

[Safety Protocol Activated: To ensure the basic safety of explorers, when an explorer experiences a death event in this world, the system will send them back to their original point of origin.]

Wishing all explorers a safe and fruitful journey!

The cold, impersonal system notification sound disappeared.

A dark, damp, narrow alley.

Yu Jin's consciousness was the first to break free from the dizziness of time travel.

He instinctively tried to move his hands and feet, but felt an unusual heaviness and... extra parts?

He raised his hand and touched the top of his head—a hard, curved horn. Then, he felt a familiar sensation behind him and tentatively shook it—a powerful tail covered in fine scales swayed in response.

"Thank goodness I didn't turn into anything else. By the way, am I bound to a dragon? Why am I like this everywhere I go!" Yu Jin rubbed his face hard with his hands.

"Is this what they call a template? I wonder what it looks like on other people's templates!"

Yu Jin lowered his hand and glanced around. Huh?

How come there's only one teammate left?

Ember crouched down and shook his only teammate: "Hey, Doctor, wake up! Still sleeping here? We're not allowed to sleep here. And why haven't you changed at all? Get up and check what's going on with your template. And get up and lead the way, our teammate is missing."

As the embers swayed, the figure finally stirred.

The body under the hood shifted slightly, as if it wasn't fully awake yet.

Just as Ember opened his mouth to speak, a woman's voice, filled with confusion and a hoarseness from just waking up, clearly came from under the hood:

"Ugh... my head hurts so much... Where... where am I? And... who are you?"

This sound!

Yu Jin's movements froze instantly.

He suddenly lowered his head, staring at the person in front of him in disbelief.

All the words I had prepared ultimately amounted to a single cry of shattered worldview:

Holy crap! You're really a woman!

Volume 1: Chapter 124 Doctor: Is this still abroad?

Hello everyone, I am a PhD.

Don't ask about my age or gender; in short, I'm in trouble now.

He calmly surveyed the familiar yet unfamiliar faces around him—the iconic Lungmen building was right in front of him.

And there was Amiya, the little rabbit standing beside him, her face upturned with worry.

What is this for me?

Why am I in China? Why are all the faces around me so familiar?

Didn't I just start dimensional exploration?

Where are my teammates? Where did they go?

"Doctor, what's wrong? What happened?" Amiya looked at the doctor, who hadn't said a word since they found him, with a worried expression.

The other person said they were looking for a place to use the restroom, but once they got there, they couldn't find their way. They kept telling me to follow them, but I refused. Luckily, we've finally found one.

Amiya's call sounded familiar to the Doctor, but it was different from the voice he had heard before. His own family's calls to him didn't have that...trust and reliance.

"So... I've been transported to a parallel world that's highly similar to mine, or even the same? Where did I go in this world? Wait, that's not important! The biggest problem now is—"

The Doctor quickly glanced at Amiya's worried eyes, then looked around at the operators who were wary of their surroundings.

"I probably look exactly the same as the doctor in this world, otherwise they wouldn't have mistaken me for someone else. But... if they find out that I'm not the doctor they're looking for, then I'm doomed!"

Imagine your own boss's clothes suddenly appearing on a stranger's body. Even Rhodes Island would probably find it hard to believe that the original person might have gone wrong.

Feeling the strength in his body, the doctor... complied.

"I'm fine, Amiya."

A slightly husky, androgynous voice came from under the hood.

Amiya tilted her head slightly. With some concern, she said, "Doctor, is your throat bothering you? Your voice sounds..."

After Amiya remained silent, one of the operators behind her joked, "She looks a bit like a man."

man!

Another operator elbowed the other person and said, "Don't joke like that."

"Tsk, trying to lighten the mood..."

The two continued their hushed whispers, while my doctor was on the verge of exploding.

"Holy crap! Are you kidding me? I'm a woman in this world! If those guys see me, they'll laugh at me for years! I don't want that kind of thing."

The doctor could already imagine the reactions of those scoundrels.

"No, no, this isn't the time to think about that. I still have dirt on those two scoundrels. If they dare laugh, I'll expose them! The most important thing right now is this..."

Looking at Amiya, whose worried expression was growing increasingly serious.

Humiliation, resentment, and finally, acceptance.

Just as Amiya was about to ask again, the Doctor spoke slowly.

"I'm fine, it's just that my throat is a little sore."

Hearing that clear and familiar voice, Amiya's worries eased slightly. She glanced at the time and then smiled.

"Then, Doctor, let's go. Officer Chen from Lungmen is still waiting for us."

"...Let's go."

"Ah."

Amiya turned and walked outside, while the Doctor looked at the figures still surrounding him.

"Now it's time to show off my acting skills, and luckily I'm quite good at it, but..."

The professor looked at the notification from a chat group after traversing the world.

[Friendly reminder: This group will be unblocked in one day. Please wait patiently in the meantime.]

"Even without my extraordinary wisdom, those guys should be able to get through it."

-

"Let's go!" A stern-faced man waved to the crowd behind him, his voice carrying an unquestionable tone of command.

"Remember Talulah's orders! Target: Lungmen slums. Infiltrate, lie in wait, and await the signal. Remember, before the plan begins, keep your tails between your legs. If your identities are exposed, you'll bear the consequences!"

A muffled chorus of agreement rose from the crowd.

Kevin mingled among them, but his eyes were filled with confusion.

Where did this come from?

The Reunion Movement?

Tallulah?

Isn't this the world the doctor is in?

Are these people members of the Reunion Movement?

And... Kevin twitched the extra pair of ears on his head, and the white wolf tail behind him also swept the ground restlessly, raising a fine dust.

Good grief, does this mean I've turned into a big wolfhound boy?

I really want to take a selfie right now, but...

Kevin looked at the ordinary-looking people around him and narrowed his eyes slightly.
